A former first-round pick, Jeff Blauser played 11 seasons with the Atlanta Braves, where he was considered one of the better-hitting shortstops in the National League.  Blauser did suffer numerous injuries that often kept him off the diamond, but he did have a pair of 160-hit seasons, both of which would see him named an All-Star.  He was not always considered among the better defensive infielders of his time, but his above-average bat for a National League Shortstop made him valuable.
